This presentation will begin with a discussion on valuing a business. It
will cover the lifecycle of a transaction from the first steps of
dealing with brokers, the execution of NDA’s and the Letter of Intent,
through financial disclosures, due diligence, and negotiations
surrounding the definitive agreements, and will end with a discussion on
closing and post closing issues. This presentation will include a
discussion of the joint efforts of attorneys and accountants working on
the various tax considerations (including sales/use tax, federal and
state tax concerns, payroll, new 83(b) elections,
assumption/cancellation of options, election under IRC Section
338(h)(10) and tax-free transactions under Section 368).
